Color Yourself Successful: Hues That Up Your Office Game

Winning in the workplace? Obviously, it has everything to do with your razor-sharp skill. But sometimes a little extra help doesn’t hurt, either. This is when you call upon color, and all its glorious mind games – er, psychological influences.

Black
You’ve been tasked to run this month’s big status meeting. Don’t panic – just wear black. It asserts power and authority. Next stop? Corner office.

Blue
Interviewing for your dream job? Seal the deal by wearing blue. It conveys loyalty. (Not that you look like an embezzler or anything.)

Yellow
Up a little too late the night before? Show up the next morning in yellow. You’ll look and feel more alert, even without that umpteen-shot soy latte.
